I have found a way to fix the spatial reference so the scale is accurate when printed to my projection.
The problem now is that when I print the map prints larger then the defined box.
I think that it prints bigger to preserve the scale that has been set.
I tell it to print at 1=40 but when i compare the print to the slider it has actually printed the area of at 1=55 at 1=40 scale.
I am trying to wrap my head around this.
Do I just need to change the config file to match the new size of the print.


Solved! Go to Solution.
I believe the solution is just to make the page size bigger in the config even though I printing at 8.5x11.
My config says the page is 11.65x14.8
"Elevation8x11Portrait": {
"alias": "Elevation8x11Portrait",
"units": "esriInches",
"params": [
{
"x": 11.65,
"y": 14.8
},
{
"x": 11.2,
"y": 13.5
},
{
"x": 0.225,
"y": 0.8
},
{
"x": 0.5,
"y": 0.5
}
]
},
